Donna Duryea has represented us in all real estate matters since 2008 when she listed our home. She has always been extremely willing to supply us with any real estate information we needed and has shown us multiple listing she thought might interest us when were simply exploring the market. This year she listed and sold a vacation rental for us very quickly. This was our first real estate transaction in several years and the process was far more complex than we expected and she guided us through it with exceptional expertise. We will certainly be using Donna for any future real-estate sales or purchases

We interviewed several realtors before listing our home with Donna Duryea. Donna saw the actual value of our home, when other realtors were trying to "low ball" our home for a quick sale. Because Donna was willing to "go the mile" with us on our sale and knew we were actually priced right, we ended up getting a full price offer just after two months which we accepted. Had we went with the other realtors we would have lost at least $180k on the sale of our home.

Additionally, Donna had chosen to be an agent with Elite Pacific Properties, Hawaii's most professional broker that lists Hawaii's finest homes. Their process for sellers as well as buyers is thorough and is done consistently with many of the tasks automated, without losing the personal experience between agent and buyer/seller.

Donna offered to do as many "Open House" dates as we felt necessary to boost our property. Donna also has her own personal and professional photographer; Randall Duryea, that really set our home apart from the rest. The pictures were outstanding, offering potential sellers an exquisite representation of our home to potential buyers. This was really important to us, as you only have a few seconds to catch the attention of a buyer.

Thank you Donna and Randall for such personable and professional service, that afforded us a very successful and quick full price sale!

Our relationship with Donna has now involved two sales. First, when we were new to the area, her patience and resolve helped us find our unique mountain chalet. This was not easy. It involved exploring several communities and viewing maybe 20 houses until we located this perfect home. She then deftly helped us through a maze of county regulations and negotiations. Four years later, understandably, Donna was the first one we called when it came time to sell and move on. She was always open to marketing ideas and was enthusiastic and highly motivated. Her persistence prevailed. Within four months she brought us qualified buyers who loved this house as much as we did. We're very satisfied with the sale and recommend Donna to anyone serious in either buying or selling on the Big Island. She's not only a pro--she's now a friend.

Donna is the real dealer! She will put in 110% for you! She organized not only the sale, but the staging and excellent photos of the property! We got a good price and she and her team troubleshooted any issues in a timely manner.

Donna is amazing!! She has completed two transactions for me and both of them closed on time or early with no issues. I can't explain how much I appreciate Donna's knowledge, expertise and most of all her caring nature for everyone! Donna is the best in the business!!!

Donna and Jessica were so helpful in the sale of my house. Any time I inquired with a question I was answered quickly through email or a telephone call. Their knowledge of the area was so helpful in recognizing the value of my home. When there was a discrepancy in the assessment they took the time to document why it was not accurate.

This is the second time that we have worked with Donna. She is a true professional. She has helped us to buy a home and to sell a home in Hawaii. She is always on top of everything and made both our purchase of a home and sale of a home very easy. We highly recommend Donna if you are intending to buy a home or have one listed in Hawaii you cannot go wrong by having Donna. She is extremely professional and ethical. Donna knows that time is of the most urgent matter when buying and selling out ready to move quickly when necessary.

You couldn't find a better Team than the Duryea Team. Their wasn't one time that they didn't respond in a timely manner. They were very positive on any of our suggestions and followed through to the best of their ability. Hard working Team and you as a sell/buyer are always #1.

The Duryea Team ... the dream team for us ... We had immediate results - within 1 week of posting the MLS we were getting showing requests; in less than 3 weeks we received several serious offers. From the moment we met Donna Duryea, she exemplified what a professional and highly motivated Realtor is. With a "can do" attitude, she was knowledgeable, thorough, insightful-sharp, highly competent, accommodating and a joy to work with! This also applied to her team of Realtor professionals as well. She was confident that she was going to sell our property which not only included a custom, cedar home but also a nursery shadehouse and warehouse sitting on almost 15 acres.

Her professional expertise came into play when we went through the escrow process as first-time home sellers. The advise and knowledge she shared were excellent. She had the ability to communicate with a multitude of people from various multicultural backgrounds and walks of life and was able to negotiate, inform and coordinate the details in a tactful, professional and personal way. Having been born and raised in Hawai'i, Donna has the innate sense of culture, respect and the true Aloha Spirit. Her experience on the Continental U.S. and abroad adds the added bonus of her ability to relate and treat everyone with genuine kindness. We love the Donna Duryea Team - the Dream Team and so will you!

We had the pleasure of working with Donna last year when we bought our first home in Hawaii. She was with us every step of the way, and went the extra mile at the end to insure a smooth closing. I recommend her to all of our friends!
